I love a chicken pot pie to warm me up in the fall/winter months, but they are so time consuming. This casserole comes together so quickly and has all the same great flavors so you won’t need to slave away anymore!

I used to feel guilty when I used things like frozen vegetables and precooked meats, but reality has set in. In shifting my priorities in life, I have realized that frozen veggies work just as well in homemade pot pies.  Grab ahold of my truth and get to cooking.

INGREDIENTS NEEDED TO MAKE THIS CHICKEN POT PIE CASSEROLE:

  • 2 cans, cream of chicken soup
  • 1 cup, water
  • 2 cups, frozen peas and carrots

  • 1 lb cooked, diced or shredded chicken breast (I recommend cooking in instant pot or using rotisserie chicken for quick prep)
  • 1 teaspoon, poultry seasoning
  • 1 can, crescent rolls

DIRECTIONS TO MAKE THIS CHICKEN POT PIE CASSEROLE:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Prep an 11 x 13 casserole dish.

  4. Add potatoes, chicken, veggies, potatoes, and seasoning to bowl, stir gently to combine.
  5. Pour mixture into casserole dish, top with crescent roll dough.
  6. Cover and bake for 10 minutes. Then uncover and bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until edges of top are golden brown.

This recipe keeps getting better and better. This casserole literally takes 25 minutes to bake! Most casserole recipes I make hit the hour mark by the time you take foil off and such. Using the precooked chicken and the frozen veggies really helps keep the cooking time under 30 minutes.
